It’s been a busy month with my newborn and at the time of my last post, we didn’t have a name for her yet. I can now say that we have called her Esmé 🙂

As part of our Chinese tradition, we have a Full Moon Party when baby is a month old. This celebration is similar to the baby showers that you would normally have before baby is born. And of course I had to create the party invitations!

I was calling Esmé my lil’ Peanut when I was pregnant with her. And my older daughter Ella had chosen a lil Elephant blankie present for Esmé. I wanted an elephant image on the invitations. So, I knew the awesome new Balloon Builders stamp set would be perfect. The combinations are endless with this set!

Here’s what I came up with…

I had seen this balloon elephant image on a sample at the OnStage event that I attended last year. I thought it was the perfect image for my invitations 🙂

I used the “Let Us” sentiment from the Balloon Celebrations set & the “Party” was from a sentiment in the Balloon Builders set. I coloured them with the Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to get my custom sentiment!

Here’s what the inside looked like…

This is a pop-up card & the balloon elephant sits on a hinge. Here’s a side view of the hinge…

A basic hinge gives you added dimension & creates a fun interactive card – quick & easy just the way I like it!

I hope you enjoyed my card today. I’ve got a couple more creations using the Balloon Builders stamp set to show you. So, make sure you come back to check them out in future posts.
